Sorry, I sent that mail before realizing that the bugzilla database
didn't include AbiWord. I'll try to get that fixed right now, but as
for bugs.gnome.org, the way to close lots of bugs is like this:
send email to control@bugs.gnome.org with the text
close 12345
close 23456
etc, where each number is one of the bugs you want to close. That
should do the trick.
